Profile Summary

I am an established freelance science writer and consultant based in Lyon, France. I specialise in a range of topics linked to biology and the environment, including climate change, sustainability, biodiversity, molecular biology, and biotechnology. I produce well-researched and informative pieces that communicate even the most complex ideas in a clear and engaging manner. I offer a strong background in academia as well as experience as a science communicator, both as a lecturer and from volunteer roles in science outreach. As a result, I am capable of explaining ideas to a range of audiences. In addition to research and writing, I also offer copyediting and proofreading services.
